Trivia

Hello. Please do not move information to trivia sections, we want our trivia sections to only include information that can otherwise not fit anywhere. As such, if anything, we want things to be moved out of trivia sections, not the other way around. Other than that, great job on your edits so far, and keep editing. :) Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 04:01, 9 May 2018 (EDT)

Oh okay cool! I'm still just trying to figure out how things work around here so thanks for letting me know. --Weuxj (talk) 11:31, 9 May 2018 (EDT)

Categories

Hello, Weuxj. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly categorize the file. It's simple to learn how to do so. Just search for the correct category by starting with the following groups:

Images Audio/video files

When uploading, copy the full title of the category and insert it in square brackets into the summary text box below the {{aboutfile}} template, replacing the {{uncategorized}} template entirely. If you're using the upload function from the text editor, simply add the category link to the description. For example, files related to the game Super Mario World would use:

[[Category:Super Mario World images]]
or
[[Category:Super Mario World media files]]

Please consider the above information before uploading more files. Keep in mind that some files can belong to multiple categories. Do not put images into the media files category, or vice versa. If you continue uploading files without categorizing them correctly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

Categories are placed by typing something like [[Category:Super Mario Odyssey Images]], not {{Category:Super Mario Odyssey Images}} as that transcludes the information on Category:Super Mario Odyssey Images, which isn't what you want.

Also, not sure if you should be uploading images from the Mario Wikia. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 17:27, 9 May 2018 (EDT)

Oh whoops! Thank you for letting me know. I'm still learning so I'll keep that in mind. Also I'll refrain from uploading Mario Wikia images then if it's going to cause problems. Thank you! --Weuxj (talk) 17:43, 9 May 2018 (EDT)
Thanks for understanding! We're going to have to delete the images, though, but if you have Super Mario Odyssey, you can upload your own images :) Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 17:45, 9 May 2018 (EDT)
Okay no problem! I think some I have are official so I'll link those properly this time around. --Weuxj (talk) 17:52, 9 May 2018 (EDT)

Art poster

Regrading your recent uploads, do not crop off character artworks from Game posters. Alien Bunny Sprite.pngL151Onnanoko

Oh I'm sorry. I honestly didn't know that was a rule. Do you know why that is? And so are we only allowed to upload cropped images from in-game screenshots? Also can I re-upload the images I had if I properly crop them out and put it in a transparent layer or is that a no-no too? I'm really trying to get the hang of this place so if you can help me out, that would be great. The rules around here aren't that clear to me I suppose. Thank you. --Weuxj (talk) 13:52, 14 May 2018 (EDT)

If you mean by game sprites, then yes. Alien Bunny Sprite.pngL151Onnanoko

I meant are only in-game cropped images like this [1] allowed? Also can I re-upload the images I had if I properly crop them out and put it in a transparent layer to look like these [2] at least? I don't meant to bother, just curious. --Weuxj (talk) 15:00, 14 May 2018 (EDT)
Only if they are PNG, you can know more by reading here.

I don't see a rule to not crop out poster images but I'll try to upload the images again with a transparency. I'll just try to figure things out and hopefully that's okay then. Thanks --Weuxj (talk) 15:28, 14 May 2018 (EDT)

Smash Ultimate image category

Someone (I think myself) had already made that category back when it was "Super Smash Bros. (Nintendo Switch)." For future reference, instead of making new categories, it's best to move the old ones. It's been deleted now, unfortunately, but please keep this in mind. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 23:03, 12 June 2018 (EDT)

I didn't know. Whoops --Weuxj (talk) 23:22, 12 June 2018 (EDT)
